I certainly know more than the average person about the meniscus, but there's still so much I don't know and understand. So, I spoke with an expert to provide context:

How complicated can meniscus injuries be? We asked a sports medicine doctor

The start to Joel Embiid and the Sixers’ season has been frustrating to say the least. We spoke with a sports medicine doctor to attempt to understand what’s going on.

The Bari Weiss-led CBS News has had this up for 3 days and misspelled his name in the hed.

CBS News would never put a thinly sourced 'story' by a rookie blogger like this on it's air. Until now. The Free Press isn't a journalism outlet, it's bloggers aren't reporters. This piece is more NYPost than Tiffany Network but I guess that's the goal.

The Free Press spoke to several New York City Police Department officers who are worried about Zohran Mamdani becoming mayor. Olivia Reingold joins CBS News with more.

Here’s last night’s story about Bari Weiss, CBS News, Paramount Skydance, and why the Upper West Side is a lot more than just “Seinfeld territory.” youtu.be/gieTx_P6INQ

I think the average person imagines a Terminator scenario for AI destroying us. It’s actually going to be a lot more like WALL-E where we willingly let computers take our humanity.

This is amazing. I laughed out loud www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle...

As 32-year-old Rich points out, though, "it's not like using ChatGPT guarantees success".
When he met someone in a bar one Friday night and swapped social media handles, he asked AI what his next move should be.
ChatGPT discerned that sending an initial message on Monday midmorning would set the right pace. "Then it gave me some options for what the message could be," says Rich.
"Keep it light, warm, and low-stakes so it reads as genuine interest without urgency," the bot advised. "Something like: Hey Sarah, still laughing about [tiny shared moment/reference if you've got one] - good to meet you!" Rich went back and forth with ChatGPT until he felt they'd hit upon exactly the right message ("Hey Sarah, it was lovely to meet you") but sadly she never replied, he says. "It's been two weeks now."

Everything is awful, but my god, what is this? The cruelest shit imaginable for absolutely no reason.

The deportation order derives from the crime of which he has now been exonerated.

He was wrongfully imprisoned for 43 years. Moments after being released, ICE took him

If everything goes as planned, MarJon Beauchamp will sign a contract with the Sixers.
Sources have said the 6-foot-6 small forward has agreed to an Exhibit 10 contract with the Sixers. However, a team source said it is not official yet. The source said the Portland Trail Blazers are still involved.

The coverage of A.J. Brown needs to be studied.

Dianna Russini @diannarussini.bsky.social · 2d

It’s possible Philly isn’t broken; the Eagles are just out of sync.

But every week that passes with problems piling up makes league decision-makers wonder about WR A.J. Brown.

Stretch Drummond is 2-for-2 from deep tonight.

Paul Hudrick @paulhudrick.bsky.social · 3d

It's been a tough summer/preseason for Justin Edwards, but he's putting up a hell of an effort on the defensive end here in the third. Just picked Tyus Jones and got an easy transition dunk.

Paul Hudrick @paulhudrick.bsky.social · 3d

Barlow is now up to 10 points and six rebounds. He's done some nice things defensively as well. It's the preseason, but the Sixers might have something here.

Paul Hudrick @paulhudrick.bsky.social · 3d

Dominick Barlow with two athletic put-backs. That play on the offensive glass will get him on the floor.

Paul Hudrick @paulhudrick.bsky.social · 3d

Hell of a first quarter from Tyrese Maxey. He's got 17 points and two assists. Working all three levels. Sixers trail 34-32.

Paul Hudrick @paulhudrick.bsky.social · 3d

Four offensive rebounds (five overall) for Barlow already. He's looked good.

The Sixers are crashing the hell out of the offensive glass and keeping possessions alive. Even as I typed that it doesn't seem real.

To his credit, he just had two impressive contests at the rim without fouling and had a block on Bane.

Paul Hudrick @paulhudrick.bsky.social · 3d

Adem Bona again with two early fouls of the silly variety. Has to clean that up.

There are moments when he says or does things to bring it upon himself (something he admits to), but a lot of his "controversies" feel like people trying to create a new T.O. with an unwilling participant.

Additionally, Quentin Grimes will join Joel Embiid, Paul George, Jared McCain, Kyle Lowry and Trendon Watford on the inactive list.

Sixers say VJ Edgecombe is out tonight with left hip soreness. He's considered day to day and is expected to practice next week.

I get it. I’m suffering as well.

Her newest ad is definitely more on the offensive. Her campaign is underwhelming (and she’s just an underwhelming candidate) but it seems like they’re picking it up a bit.

Paul Hudrick @paulhudrick.bsky.social · 3d

I disagree but to each their own.
